During last nights rehearsals it finally hit that we open in four days!! Oh my god that is so crazy. I'm ready for it, I'm excited, I saw the rough copy of the program and I was just in awe. Wow, my bio is in a NYC program. I'm doing theatre professionally this is such a dream come true. I feel like all my hard work and tears are leading up to this and whether or not people like the play or whatever anyone says about it, I am proud. To think two years ago when I gave all this up to just let it reside in the back of my brain as a silly dream that wouldn't happen, all the talks ("well if I ever decided to do this I would go to New York instead of L.A") about "if", has now become I am, and it's a wonderful feeling.
I'm currently reading Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass, I'm not going to front like I'm all smart, I'll admit it is fairly difficult for me to understand at times. The poetry is unlike anything I have ever read before and it is not easy to understand some of the ways he flows his words but there are quite a number of points that he makes and descriptions that I absolutely love. I saw a biography on PBS about him which got me interested in reading the book. A very tragic figure, but an incredibly powerful writer.
